I swear I started this thread the other day, and simply can’t find it anywhere. Apologies if I’ve done it twice.

I forget where I saw this, but in the middle of a thread someone posted something to the effect of “darn, I posted and thought I’d go up in rank but I didn’t” and I wondered what ranks were to be found on the Goodman boards. With a couple of days left on winter break (teacher) I was a little bored so I did some quick research.

Some of the cutoff numbers were guesses by me, but it made sense that the person who set up the ranks would pick somewhat round numbers.

I found it interesting that:1) No one has posted in the 300’s so I don’t know if there really is a rank in there. (There is quite a jump from 290 to 402.)2) The ranks appear to stop at 500. (At least Joseph’s 1792 isn’t high enough to bump him to another rank. I suppose it could be at 2000 or something like that, but as far as I know “Old red dragon ghost” is the top dog.)

I think there is an old post somewhere that gives the old names and then the new ones complete with the number of posts to reach each level. I remember reading it soon after I joined but have not looked for it in years. I swear its hear somewhere.

I remember that thread, too, but I can't find it either! Anyway, here are the current ranks. I think the thresholds were part of the original phpBB setup. Well, maybe. It's been several years so I don't really remember. The rank titles are of course custom verbiage:

Also I had posted the darn comment and can't find it either. I thought it was in one of your topics but must be wrong. If you find it the response to my post will tell you the missing rank.

Good. I thought I was going crazy. I searched for about 20 minutes trying to find the thread. I was certain it was hidden in the middle of something else, but couldn't find it.

Hey, don't dismiss the level 0 folks ... I've been reading these boards for almost 6 years and still am under 10 posts but I do buy a lot of GG products ... so changing names at 1, 3, 5, maybe even 9 would be fine by me
